Tourist Attraction
Musamman Burj
The Musamman Burj, also known as the Shah Burj, is an octagonal tower located within the Agra Fort in Agra, Uttar Pradesh. Built by Shah Jahan between 1631 and 1640 for his beloved wife Mumtaz Mahal, the tower is made of delicate marble with intricate pietra dura decorations.
The Musamman Burj offers one of the most poignant views of the Taj Mahal, as it stands close to Shah Jahan's private hall, the Diwan-e-Khas. The tower features a marble dome and a verandah with a beautifully carved fountain in the center.
It is said that Shah Jahan spent his last years imprisoned by his son Aurangzeb, gazing at the Taj Mahal from this very spot. The Musamman Burj is a testament to the architectural brilliance of the Mughal era and remains a popular spot for visitors to the Agra Fort.
